Lynia™ Stone Cladding: recommended installation method for best results

27/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Norstone’s brand new Lynia™ Range consists of exciting new textures and colours, fit for any living or exterior spaces. The colour range caters for the most discerning home lover or developer. They are, grey and ebony Basalt, Lava stone in Platinum and Graphite, Marble in Glacier White and Latte (also known as beige), while the Silver grey in quartzite is stunning. This all new natural stone cladding range is another example of why Norstone is the Market leader.

The Lynia™ Range now has mitred external corners to save time on site and to allow for a complete corner installation system. Welcome to the Norstone world of high quality stone cladding systems.
 
We have produced a simple Installation guide with pictures to allow correct installation methods are employed. We always suggest a skilled tiler should install using a wet saw.

The methodology should be followed as outlined in the following pictures and text.

Step-by-step Guide

Note: This process was completed with Platinum/Graphite Lava Stone in the Lynia™ range.
Picture
STEP 1
We recommend you apply LavaSeal prior to installation and grouting. Start by sealing the Lavastone panels with a lint free cloth or similar, one coat, when dry apply second coat.
Picture
STEP 2
Ensure that you have completely covered the surface with the first coat, as shown. Wait to dry.
Picture
STEP 3
Now dry and ready to be adhered to substrate, no colour change when dry.
Picture
STEP 4
Screeded substrate with 6mm notched trowel, a thin bed is required to stop any adhesive squeezing through the gaps when the stone is applied. The compressed bedding adhesive should be less than 10mm or less. Also recommended, a thin bed applied to back of Norstone tile as well.

Picture
STEP 5
Applying the Lavastone and using a grout float to pat it down on the surface to ensure full contact.

Picture
STEP 6
Fixed Lavastone waiting for adhesive to dry and then grouted.

Picture
Picture
Picture
STEP 7
Applying the grout, you can see why it would be impossible to avoid filling the holes and why it was necessary to pre-seal.

Picture
Picture
Step 8
Cleaning off excess grout. This is a much more simple process when working with a pre-sealed surface.
Picture
Picture
Step 9
The panel shows the visual difference with once section completed with light grey grout and the other done in dark grey grout.
Picture
IN SUMMARY...
With Lynia™, and other stone cladding panels requiring grouting, it is our recommendation that you pre-seal as above. This will make sure the grouting material cannot become permanently stuck to the main surfaces of the panels and makes the cleaning up process much more straightforward. For more details, please visit the Lynia™ range.

Our new Aksent™ range  - uncompromisingly contemporary.

We’ve responded to demand to broaden our 3D Basalt range with new colours and materials - our grey and ebony basalt 3D XLX wall tiles have been augmented by quartz, lava stone and marble stone cladding tiles in beige, white and grey.

Our grey and ebony classics have proved very popular with architects and builders alike, and the success and demand for a wider colour range inspired us to create the new Aksent™ range. Every colour has the same Norstone characteristics of precision engineered modular natural stone panels of the highest quality allied with our unique interlocking fingerjointed corners allowing for supreme ease of installation and a seamless finish. Like all Norstone stone cladding products, the Aksent™ range comes with a unique warranty if correctly affixed using Laticrete MVIS products.

These modern wall tiles are perfect for contemporary commercial and residential use and are suitable for both interior and exterior use. Our original best-selling grey and ebony in basalt are still available and the full range includes a beautiful beige Latte in smooth as silk marble, a classic ice white Glacier marble, lava stone tiles in Platinum and a slightly darker Graphite grey, and a quartz tile in Silver Grey.

Please contact us (sales@norstoneuk.com) for further details. 150mm x 150mm samples and full size panels are available to order from our website and are delivered via FedEx 24 hour courier service. Orders received before noon are usually delivered the next working day.
